They were selling brand new for $425, as best as I can remember. The Super Eagles sold for about $30 more. Triumph Bonnivilles were selling new for $850. Harley Sportsters sold new for $1,300.I was working in a cannery during the summer months saving up as much money as I could, but paying for my old car, gasoline, and insurance didn't leave me with much money left for a Cushman Eagle. *Minimum pay at that time was 50 cents per hour. To make a long story longer, it's now 51 years later. I ride a Harley Tour Glide, but that lust to ride a Cushman Super Eagle still eats at me. Perhaps one day I'll get to visit a Cushman event where a Cushman Eagle owner who always wanted to try riding a Harley and I could allow each other to try riding their bike? I sure hope so. Of interest, there is one regularly ridden Cushman Eagle in the Reno, Nevada area. I have not yet actually seen it being ridden, but only have noticed it parked at various places around town.
